I created a work with ink every day in the month October, and posted this on social media with the hashtag Inktober. I noticed that, by working only with ink and a pen or brush, I very quickly developed towards a style that appealed to me greatly.

drawings ‘Inktober’

In 2016 I participated with Inktober for the first time. Jake Parker, the initiator of Inktober, noticed that he was working more and more digitally and that he started losing the physical, analog side of drawing. Inktober allowed him to return to ink for one month a year. In imitation of Jake, I created a work with ink every day in the month October, and posted this on social media with the hashtag Inktober. I noticed that, by working only with ink and a pen or brush, I very quickly developed towards a style that appealed to me greatly. I am happy to share some work from this period with you.
